    Great review man. Own this light, and it’s my primary defensive travel tool. Such a great value.

    Outstanding review sir, the little details peeking out of the sketchy shadows had me laughing, well done. I've bought several flashlights with side button controls recently and I don't think I'll buy another, I simply can't find the buttons when I need to, so I definitely appreciate this one with the tail-only controls...that said one of my most used lights has a side control and a massive magnet on the tail. I definitely agree that there needs to be an ultra-low setting added to this light, whether it's to extend the battery life in an emergency or just to prevent waking up a partner while you're scrounging around at night, it really is a must have.

    This is a great EDC flashlight. Tip from another Nitecore fan I've appreciated is to unscrew the back a bit so you don't accidentally turn it on. It's a helpful tip. I'd like them to add a strobe and lower lumen feature as well.

  • @NaturalMystic69
    @NaturalMystic69 Před 3 měsíci

    Great review and I agree, I'd like to see momentary on and a lower low. Otherwise I love the form factor and ability to take common AAs. I'm slowly moving away from CR123s and 18650s now that the tech has advanced enough to make AA and even AAA viable options.

    I have it now for over the month and have the same criticism and expectation as you describe. But I like it very much and I love to have it in my hand surprisingly ! love the grip! Way to improve it, and were thinking using the chargeable battery to decrease the level of the low mode (but still have to check) Using a small diffuser? But I agree the UI need to be worked out

    Honestly I totally agree with your con points.
    I’m going travelling for a few months later this year and I thought this would be the perfect choice of light to bring when it was announced. But the UI is really bugging me. The original MT2A UI is still way better IMO. And 50/60lumens is too high for a “low” mode.
    Great review dude 👍

    • @tacticaltavern
      @tacticaltavern  Před 4 měsíci

      I can't confirm from personal experience but nitecore doe shave a list online for what batteries it can take - I would look there for more info

    • @pericodelospalotes5738
      @pericodelospalotes5738 Před měsícem +1

      Not two, only one 14500 and a dummy AA to transmit the energy through it because otherwise you'd fry the led with 8,4 volts. Nevertheless you would get about half the runtime so it seems kind of nonsense.

    • @vp2747
      @vp2747 Před 5 měsíci

      I think there is a way to modify it to have momentary on/off, but requires to disassemble the tail switch.

    • @maxlvledc
      @maxlvledc Před 5 měsíci +2

      @vp2747 that's not my issue, it's mode memory. I would want it to always come in on Hi and then change settings from there. That would make it ideal for me personally.

    "if you're looking for a flashlight - even a family member or a friend.." that was pretty funny to me😅

  • @happyamerican3235
    @happyamerican3235 Před 5 měsíci

    I wish it had momentary… and like you said a 10 lumen or lower option. How hot does the bezel get after 5 minutes or so on 1K lumens? I’m guessing they opted for no momentary to keep the cost down and I will add I’ve had some lights get drained because the pad was pressed in a pack. I’ll also tell people you CANNOT use that lithium pack in any other AA device. Don’t be putting that battery in anything other than this light.

    • @tacticaltavern
      @tacticaltavern  Před 5 měsíci +1

      It really doesn’t get superrr hot but certainly warm- it has good temperature regulation 👍🏽

  • @mikecarr1484
    @mikecarr1484 Před 3 měsíci

    You sold me on one. They should thank you I had no idea it existed. Streamlight makes the dual fuel 1aa and it’s ok. But it’s only 350 lumens and too fat. Their pen light is only 350 lumens. The wedge has internal batteries idk about that. Same as the edc27 has internal batteries that scares me away
